T6 no live view images

My T6 will not produce any images when using live view, but will when using the viewfinder.  AND - this problem ONLY occurs when using the 18-55mm lens, not the 70-300mm lens.  What gives???

“Does the 18-55 autofocus when not in live view?”

 


How do you do that test?  You do the following.

 

“Ask your friend to try the camera outdoors on a sunny day.  Aim the camera at something lit up by the sun.  Do not stand too close the subject.  I would say a distance of 20 feet is a good test.”

 

I think the OP has already reported that it does autofocus in the viewfinder.

Having same issue with my wife's T6 Rebel and the 18-55 lens. If using the viewfinder, autofocus works with a half press and you can take photos with a full press. If you are using the rear LCD instead, any press of the shutter button (half or full) will trigger the shutter but no image is saved.

Does live view work in manual mode as in the OP?

It almost sounds like your 18-55 may have some kind of damage to its lens mount and is not communicating with your camera, and I am not a serious photographer.
